GARMENTS AS EXPRESSIONS OF SOCIAL STATUS

Blake Lively was the first person that popped in my head when I thought of a modern day style icon. She is strikingly similar to her infamous character on Gossip Girl Serena van der Woodsen when it comes to fashion. Blake has been associated with fashion from the start of her career as every teenage girl who watched Gossip Girl lusted over her wardrobe.
 Blake does not disappoint in real life as she finds herself at the top of red carpet best dressed lists religiously.

She is also best friends with the one and only Michael Kors. She is his muse that he gives his best looks to or will even make special customized pieces for. The two have had a close relationship since her entrance onto the Hollywood scene. Most likely she is wearing Michael Kors on the red carpet. Blake has a youthful yet classic style and is known to wear things that she feels comfortable in. She is not afraid to experiment with patterns or colors and always manages to look put together and confident. She pulls off Hollywood glamour perfectly on red carpets while still looking fresh.

Blake is a contemporary fashion icon for women everywhere as they all wish they could wear outfits and gowns as she does. Her style is coveted and sought after by the way she carries herself in her looks. She wears a long gown yet looks as relaxed as she would in a sweater and jeans. Blake’s style and attitude make her a fashion icon of the decade.
